From Kij Johnson's quietly sinister tale of the casual cruelty of children ("Ponies") to excerpts from Connie Willis's novels Blackout and All Clear, this collection of stories, poems, and longer fiction showcases the winners and nominees of the 2011 Nebula Awards, selected by the members of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA). A list of this year's nominees (and the winner) and a list of winners from 1965 to date round out this volume.
VERDICT Attesting to the high quality of contemporary imaginative fiction, this is an important tool for readers' advisory, collection development, and expanding readers' sf and fantasy horizons.
